Thank you, Minister, and I ask a supplementary question. Can I get some further information on similar situations? Doesn’t this case follow that of a further case of a leukaemia sufferer being forced to look for work by the Commonwealth? Wasn’t that decision overturned only after the family went to the media? Will the government now commit to a full review, given that the system is failing families who are caring for seriously ill children?
